The meters in front of 401 w Seventh st were installed backwards. To feed the meter it should face away from the car/street just like the rest of the meters around town. When looking for a parking spot I look for meters flashing green so I can save some money. These meters are backwards - so you can’t see if it is flashing red or green
I tried to use this area to have a quick meeting with colleagues before going to an appointment at a business on the square. This area was unavailable due to the mess. Balloons, needles, beverage cans, etc. (The yoga mat is mine.) Further, these benches are damaged and appear to be unmaintained. I then moved to the corner of the square where no needles were visible. There I was immediately solicited by panhandlers twice. All of this is unacceptable and I hope to see these areas cleaned and maintained on a proper schedule. The frequency with which I am required to defend myself physically against panhandlers here is becoming unbearable. It is unsafe to be downtown in Bloomington, Indiana.
See case #188409. It has been a week since that report, though the garbage has been there longer. How long do they have before another citation and another fine? Garbage piled up on south side of the house along the alley. They have not all moved out for the summer - lights on at night - so there is someone around who could be setting out the trash.
Team of Spanish-speaking workers spent the weekend gutting this house. There is no permit posted.
Garbage heaped up against house for weeks. Will it be there all summer long? Someone call the landlord.
Trash cans are still at the curb.
Today, May 18th, 2024, my daughter was driving to BHSN around 9 AM, and a golf ball hit the windshield. The windshield had a little scratch, and my daughter was really frightened. This situation could be really dangerous: my daughter was inside a car, but what about a person on a motorcycle? This is really dangerous!
Can the City require people to fix crumbling sidewalks in front of their houses? The sidewalks along 12th Street are all in good shape except for a single address that has a sidewalk that is so degraded that it's easy to trip and fall, especially in the dark. It would be great if it could be redone - otherwise, someone could get sued...
The berm grass is too tall and is creating a line of sight issue as you approach the intersection.
Large pile of trash heaped up against the NW corner of this building. It has been there awhile, and there is a faded HAND notice on the front door that appears to be for the trash but it has been ignored. This property also has bush honeysuckle growing out onto the sidewalk, halfway covering it now.
